I think ZhangFeng yi is a good actor and an old actor. ZhangFeng yi has played many romantic figures in history, such as Cao Cao in Chibi, Ying Zheng in Qin Shihuang, and Sun Wu in the recently released Art of War. In the main melody dramas such as Peacetime and Historical Sky, he perfectly interprets two completely different images of soldiers, which can be called "Wen" and "Wu". Although ZhangFeng yi is old now, he looks younger than many of his peers, especially his figure, which has hardly been out of shape for decades, is rare among his generation of actors.

This also shows from another side that he is responsible for his acting career. Whether in Peacetime, Historical Sky or Chinese Expeditionary Force, the images of soldiers played by ZhangFeng yi are full of individuality, and even some are different. ZhangFeng yi has a simple and stubborn face, and his role as a soldier who "changes with constancy" is very convincing.

In ZhangFeng yi's early Farewell My Concubine, there is a scene in which Duan Xiaolou, played by ZhangFeng yi, suffers while being whipped by his master. Prop master from the beginning of the gentle laid hands on him, to the plot more and more heavy, crisp flogging sound spread throughout the crew, kneeling on the side of the elder brother Cheng Dieyi deadpan company.

Until the last autumn, Cheng Dieyi, played by Leslie Cheung, quickly put down Duan Xiaolou's gown to hide his shame and said with a distressed face, "I can't fight any more, I'm bleeding!" Even so, ZhangFeng yi insisted on not using body double or borrowing seats, and jokingly said to the studio staff before shooting: Please leave the scene for women under 40, which caused the audience to burst into laughter. It is enough to see that the tacit understanding between the two is very good, both inside and outside the play.
